Background

Saperstein is an administrator at a mental hospital in New York City.

During the events of In the Mouth of Madness (1994) played by John Glover

Saperstein is on the phone when he gets word that a patient is being dropped off. He goes up to the Nurse and tells her that John Trent is arriving. John is dragged into the building by Guard 1 and Guard 2 and Saperstein tells them to put John in Room 9. John is put into the room and yells that he isn't insane. Saperstein plays music on the PA system to distract the screaming patients. Dr. Wrenn arrives at the hospital and is met by Saperstein who takes him to John's room. They enter John's room and find him drawing crosses all over the walls of his room with a black crayon. Later, Dr. Wrenn tells Saperstein that his interview with John was useless and walks away. The power goes out and John hears people screaming in fear and sees shadows of things killing people.
